smp: Fix smp_call_function_single_async prototype
As of commit 966a967116e6 ("smp: Avoid using two cache lines for struct call_single_data"), the smp code prefers 32-byte aligned call_single_data objects for performance reasons, but the block layer includes an instance of this structure in the main 'struct request' that is more senstive to size than to performance here, see 4ccafe032005 ("block: unalign call_single_data in struct request"). The result is a violation of the calling conventions that clang correctly points out: block/blk-mq.c:630:39: warning: passing 8-byte aligned argument to 32-byte aligned parameter 2 of 'smp_call_function_single_async' may result in an unaligned pointer access [-Walign-mismatch] smp_call_function_single_async(cpu, &rq->csd); It does seem that the usage of the call_single_data without cache line alignment should still be allowed by the smp code, so just change the function prototype so it accepts both, but leave the default alignment unchanged for the other users. This seems better to me than adding a local hack to shut up an otherwise correct warning in the caller.
